Los Angeles
Los Angeles isn’t just a city—it’s basically its own universe. From the glittering beaches of Santa Monica to the artistic energy of Downtown, from the entertainment capital of Hollywood to the cultural richness of Koreatown, LA refuses to fit into any single box. And honestly? That’s exactly what makes it magical.
This sprawling metropolis gives you everything you could possibly want, often within the same afternoon. Start your morning surfing in Malibu, grab lunch at a food truck that serves the best Korean-Mexican fusion you’ve ever tasted, spend your afternoon exploring world-class museums, and catch a sunset from the Griffith Observatory that’ll make you understand why people write songs about this place. The real estate landscape is just as diverse as the city itself—you’ve got everything from sleek downtown lofts to sprawling valley estates to beachside bungalows.
Sure, everyone jokes about the traffic (and okay, yeah, it’s real), but when you live here, you learn the rhythms. You discover the shortcuts. You find your neighborhood and build your community. Los Angeles is made up of dozens of distinct neighborhoods, each with its own personality, and finding the right fit is like finding your favorite coffee shop—once you do, you wonder how you ever lived anywhere else.
The job market is incredible, with entertainment, tech, healthcare, and international trade driving constant opportunity. The food scene is legitimately world-class (we’re talking over 100 different cuisines represented). And the weather? Those 280 days of sunshine per year aren’t exaggerated.

Fun To Know
Los Angeles’s official full name is “El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles de Porciúncula”—which translates to “The Town of Our Lady the Queen of Angels of Porciúncula.” Try fitting THAT on your driver’s license! Locals thankfully shortened it to LA pretty quickly after the city’s founding in 1781.
